Abstract

Abstract : Carbamoylation and amination of quinoline with formamides was developed via copper-catalyzed C–C and C–N bond formations. Abstract : An efficient, direct carbamoylation and amination of quinoline N -oxides with formamides to access 2-carbamoyl and 2-amino quinolines has been developed through copper-catalyzed C–C and C–N bond formations via cross-dehydrogenative coupling reactions. The reaction proceeds smoothly over a broad range of substrates with excellent functional group tolerance under mild conditions. Mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction is initiated by formamide radical or decarbonylative aminyl radical formation in the presence of TBHP, according to the different substituent on the N atom of formamide.
